Bryan/Bryant Genealogy

& Family History

Welcome to my family genealogy
page. My purpose and hope for this page is to further my family history
and genealogy. I hope to make contact with those of you who have come here
in a similar search of your own. If you find a mutual connection, feel
free to contact me and if you find that my data is in error I would
appreciate hearing from you.I am the second generation in this search
which began with my mother and father who did most of this research. I am
trying to honor their endeavors by carrying on the task.

I hope
you will benefit from the information I present here.

STRANGERS IN THE BOX
(Author Unknown)

Come, look with me inside this drawer,
In this box I've often seen,
At the pictures, black and white,
Faces proud, still, and serene.

I wish I knew the people,
These strangers in the box,
Their names and all their memories,
Are lost among my socks.

I wonder what their lives were like,
How did they spend their days?
What about their special times?
I'll never know their ways.

If only someone had taken time,
To tell, who, what, where, and when,
These faces of my heritage,
Would come to life again.

Could this become the fate,
Of the pictures we take today?
The faces and the memories,
Someday to be passed away?

Take time to save your stories,
Seize the opportunity when it knocks,
Or someday you and yours,
Could be strangers in the box.
